I'd like to know the answer to this too. Pretty much in the same boat except I'm on VIP 20.

And concerning all this talk about downgrading from Tivo after the 12 months. In truth I find it shocking that they didn't plan ahead and make it so they could disable the features in parts i.e. keeping the v+ functionality for those who receive it for free in their existing packages (first box on VIP for example). No-one in their right mind would want to go from a V+ to Tivo and then to the functionality of a VHD 12 months later. Because they'd end up with a lesser service for the same price they were originally paying for it.

However keeping all that in mind it is fair enough if they'll do the box swap to a V+ for free. I'm just surprised they didn't think ahead in that respect.
